Unpopular opinion, but keep Story Progression out of my game! This isn't a case of don't like - don't buy anymore, nothing additional that I can safely ignore, but a change in the game's core, in a product I have paid for in good faith. (Yes, I'm aware that the terms of use warn us that EA can change their product anytime. Doesn't change the fact that I'd be word-starting-with-p if they really took it to that extreme.)

Me too, this would be my worst nightmare. I like just going into World Manager and being able to have the couples that I want have babies when I want them to, add and expand their families as I see fit. I don't want to go into World Manager and see 2 sims that have no business being married to each other, suddenly married with two kids. If I want my Sim to marry Sim X and I don't want to rush it, I don't want to suddenly see Sim X in a relationship with some other frickin' sim. These are all annoying things that happened to me with that demon story progression. Bad enough that when Sims come pregnant to the hospital, sometimes they're pregnant by my sims who are in happy relationships when I go look at the family tree. Thanks, I hate it.

If they add things like this, I hope they also make some additions to Game Options so that I can shut that off.
Edit: Or at least modify it - like can I mark families or Sims that I don't want to be modified this way? That'd be great.
